NFL: New 'do for 49er and ex-UH linebacker Ulbrich

Advertiser Staff and News Services

Former University of Hawaii and current San Francisco 49ers linebacker Jeff Ulbrich has a mohawk haircut after losing a bet to safety Keith Lewis.

Ulbrich wagered he would have more special teams tackles than Lewis in the opener Monday against the Arizona Cardinals.

But according to team statistics, Lewis made three special teams tackles and Ulbrich didn't have any.

Lewis, however, committed a running-into-the-kicker penalty that resulted in an Arizona first down and an eventual score for the Cardinals.

The 49ers rallied to win, 20-17.
